I’ve finally come to the realization that with a disability I will have to hide my pride. Go to every doctor’s appointment, ask for help and realize that no question is ever stupid. My life requires continual maintenance. I just need to praise Him for having access. I’m tired of the fear. I’m having to lay every anxiety to the side. I’m worthy. I’ve fought for everything and everyone. I need to fight for me. The world tells me I don’t deserve it, but He says I do. God, I claim good health, and abundant joy. I claim it. I will prosper and not fail. Claim it too.
I am glad you are taking care of yourself. Merry Christmas!
ReplyDeleteTaking care of you is exactly what you need to do. I'm glad you have figured that out.
ReplyDeleteHave a fabulous day and weekend, Regine. ♥
...questions aren't stupid, but some answers can be!
ReplyDeleteI am very glad to read this. Perhaps instead of shame you can shift your focus to pride in all you accomplish despite your disability?
ReplyDeleteOnly you can ask the right questions. You are strong and will get stronger. Enjoy the weekend.
ReplyDeleteAmen, Regine! God helps toss fears and feelings of unworthiness out the window.
ReplyDeleteBlessings!
Yes! Be an advocate for your own health. It's not easy but it is so important.
ReplyDeleteIt is such an aggravation to have a health problem that never leaves. But I only have to go to the doctor and look around the waiting room and see how blessed I am.
ReplyDeleteglad you are able to take care yourself...
ReplyDeleteMery Christmas...
Glad you have reached this point Rue, it is rough to struggle with health issues.
ReplyDeleteQuestions aren't ever dumb. You might find it helpful to write a note and have it in hand when you go to your appointments. It helps if you're nervous and also keeps you from forgetting what you wanted to ask. Plus, docs like to zip in and out. They say a few words and often leave before you have a chance. You do deserve to ask questions and fight for yourself. With the note in hand, that they will see; they'll know you mean business.

So glad you realise that you are worthy of self care - God sees you as perfect and you are gradually seeing that too - well done. It is sometimes a long journey to get there
ReplyDeleteStay safe

You are right, no question is ever stupid.
ReplyDeleteI sometimes write a note to remind myself what questions I need to ask, this makes sure I remember.
Thinking of you.
All the best Jan
Please always feel good about yourself!!!
ReplyDeleteBe strong and believe in yourself. Life gets easier when you do.
ReplyDeleteI am glad you are taking care of yourself
ReplyDeleteYEs we need to take care of ourselves, how can we be there for others when we aren't there for ourselves. You deserve to be taken care of!
ReplyDeleteYou are facing your fears. That is good. I choose not to be afraid to live. We take risks every day. Hugs.
ReplyDeleteI like to know that you are determined and strong.
ReplyDeleteI agree with you, you are on the right path.
I want everything to happen to you as you wish.
See if you like my Christmas 'cards'... ✨ Hugs

All the best to you in those appointments. I am sure the pandemic has made some of these moments even stranger than you are used too. Stay strong. Much happiness to a beautiful weekend.
ReplyDeleteGood to read. Sometimes we do need to ask for help :-)
ReplyDeleteAmen!

I applaud your positivity.
ReplyDeleteGood for you! As you find your strength, now you are inspiring others! Merry Christmas and Healthy New Year! Holiday Hugs, Darnell
ReplyDeleteEvery human being deserves to take care of themselves as best as they can. And use all that is available. I truly believe God has given us all good things with His love and blessing, this includes medical knowledge. You are working hard to take care of yourself, and that is good.
ReplyDeleteYou just as anyone else deserves to be the best selves they can be and have the right medical care for you.
ReplyDeleteYou do deserve things, although it's sad you have to fight for them I hope you always get what you need!
ReplyDeleteHope that you are having a good weekend! :) We had a fun playdate at the park yesterday.

Yes yes...and you know you've been heard when your heart fills up and you can't help but smile - and it's your spirit saying "we got this".
ReplyDeleteYou are worth it, Regine! Claim all that's offered. Have a lovely day!
ReplyDeleteYes! You have to be your own advocate!

When it comes to healthcare, there are no dumb or stupid question! As someone said, you are your own advocate and no one else will care about your body as much as you. Glad you're claiming your health and life. All the best!

It is all right to ask for what you need. Even for what you want. And to be honest. And I think you are.
ReplyDeleteSo true and so beautiful. There's definitely strength and peace in admitting you don't have all the answers, and realizing that is half the battle. Best wishes for you on the journey. :)
ReplyDeleteHave a lovely day!
ReplyDeleteDesejo um Natal cheio de amor e um ano de 2022 com saúde, paz e conforto.
ReplyDeleteUm beijo.
It's not a disability, it's a different ability and you should be proud of yourself for your strength and courage in facing life head-on. Sending love x Karen
ReplyDeleteNo question is dumb. I admire how you handle the world, Regine. We all need to fight for ourselves, sometimes. I'm glad you are able to do that.
ReplyDeleteNo fear dear... trust.... and yes pride... be proud of what you have accomplished!

All my life I've never seen anything that works as fast as the Dr.Okosodo spell. I am from New Jersey and my name is Angela after contacting Dr.Okosodo so I started to believe the saying that every coin has two sides. When my lover abandoned me, he swore never to return to me, but thank God, through Dr. Okosodo's help, I have my lover back to me within 48 hours and I also want other people who are with the heart. party get in touch with Dr. Okosodo through these details below which are via email: ( Drokosodo647@gmail.com ) or via ( Whatsapp at +2349050443678 ), then you can see the wonders of Dr.Okosodo
